for playing the other
day, it was fun, although
I was surprised at how
many of you thought
I would not only photogragh
mouse droppings, you
thought I would post
pictures! I'm sorry to
disappoint you, but
nope, not mouse
droppings! :)
The answer
is..
Forbidden Black Rice!
I have been looking
for this rice for awhile
now and had to go
all the way to
The Spice & Tea Exchange
in Charleston, SC to
find it. Now I can't
wait to prepare it
and hope it lives
up to all the hype I
have been hearing
about it.
Thank you again
for playing and we
must do it again soon.
I hope you have
a day filled with
a lovely breeze,
laughter [because
you should laugh every
day] and overflowing
happiness.
One of my fave foodie bloggers just wrote a recipe for this!

Love Black Rice! thought that was what it was. Just had a look at the recipe above which looks good too.
ReplyDeleteI love black rice Tracey! I missed the game although living on a farm I definitely know what mouse poop looks like and it sure ain't that shiny! Love your Seuss quote!
ReplyDeleteit looks gorgeous! let us know how you prepared it and how it tastes! the "riddle" picture does look like mouse droppings, how funny :)
ReplyDeleteA friend of mine made me some sweet black rice pudding. Yum. Enjoy your cooking adventures.
ReplyDeletecan't wait to hear about the black rice---pudding? never had it. (of course, now it will always remind me of mice droppings.......)
ReplyDeletefun game
Looks much better like that....less suspicious :) Can't see what you do with it.
ReplyDeleteSounds interesting. I certainly hope you post a few recipes that use it.
ReplyDeletei love dr.seuss and your fun game. i am still thinking of mouse, um, mice. hee hee. i know your dish will be yummy.
ReplyDeletei hope you have a wonderful day too tracey dear.
I knew it was rice :)
ReplyDeleteI was embarrassed to write what I thought it was before. But it looks like I'm not the only one who thought it was scat! Although I was thinking something a little more exotic than mice (not sure what though!).
ReplyDeleteHa Ha - the rice looks great - what a fun game - mouse droppings! Ha.
ReplyDeleteThis made my day ;)
xo
I'm out one day and I miss the guessing game?
ReplyDeleteDang!
Hey- I agree one should laugh everyday. You make me smile every time I read your post and that is important too.
XO
Ooooh! I'm curious to see how it cooks up!
ReplyDeleteExciting. I love rice-seeing as I have gullah ancestors, it only seems right. Mouse droppings?! Those would have been some super busy mice or at least a whole mess of them. ;)
ReplyDeleteMouse droppings ... that is too funny. Love the photos of the alpaca lace. It must be extremely soft. Looking forward to seeing your progress on the cardi. I feel so left behind because I have yet to knit an adult-sized sweater!
ReplyDeleteoh I am so glad I didn't leave my guess because I was WAY off!
ReplyDeleteAh ha! I can't wait to hear about how it tastes!! Enjoy!
ReplyDeleteBlack rice sounds really interesting :) I'm currently loving Orzo pasta - it's pasta but rice shaped!
